I've never been to Thornboro

You should. It's a boster. Its the sheer ruddy size that stuns. It doesn't show up in the photos, which is the problem. That, and the fact not that many people HAVE visited it. And particularly not many from the chattering classes. If it had been in Oxon, Bucks or Surrey I guarrantee it wouldn't have been touched.

Too right - commuter-belters would be driving the 4WDs to Downing Street in minutes, while poor neglected Yorkshire has no political power - let's face it, ultimately that is what it comes down to.

I assume the local MP is not on the Tarmac board etc ?
